Norris Green

Norris Green is a small village in Cornwall, England, that retains the easygoing character of its origins. Once a farming hamlet, it has gently expanded and now adjoins the neighbouring village of Higher Metherell. Together they form a quiet pocket of community life within the civil parish of Calstock. The parish itself reaches to the River Tamar, the natural county boundary with Devon, placing Norris Green in the mellow landscape of south‑east Cornwall. Visitors passing through will find a place shaped by rural growth rather than sudden development — a village that feels like an evolution of agricultural past into a settled present. Its connection to Higher Metherell and to Calstock’s riverside edge gives Norris Green a sense of belonging within a broader Cornish parish, close to the line where the two counties meet. For those seeking the understated appeal of Cornwall’s quieter settlements, Norris Green offers the simple attraction of countryside continuity and community roots.
